A residential setting where a number of older people live, usually in single rooms, and have access to on-site care services. Since April 2002 all homes in England, Scotland and Wales are known as ‘care homes’, but are registered to provide different levels of care.
A home registered simply as a care home will provide personal care only – help with washing, dressing and giving medication.
A home registered as a care home with nursing will provide the same personal care but also have a qualified nurse on duty twenty-four hours a day to carry out nursing tasks. These homes are for people who are physically or mentally frail or people who need regular attention from a nurse.
Some homes, registered either for personal care or nursing care, can be registered for a specific care need, for example dementia or terminal illness.
All homes provide meals and staff on call at all times.
